Another point too is that there are young people getting sick and a vaccine seriously reduces that chance. Also impacts less on the health system.
Again why not take it?
Whatever about not taking it, itās them saying theyāre no good that is baffling.
Flesh that out with figures.
You seem to talking in fantasy there.
Also interesting considering your dismissive comments on flu previously. Would you like to retract those?
I knew Iād regret responding to you.
Iām done,

id 100% agree with you, the only reason why any of us got it is for that reason, unless we were over 60 or medically vulnerable
Look, ive no doubt the vaccine works, and i cant speak for him but im sure @Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy does also, @Copper_pipe shows numbers there above that they do work and thats great. It works for those who need it.
BUT the question has to be asked, as they no doubt do work, why are we masking kids to prevent infecting vaccinated people ? it doesnāt make sense.
Also, most of us here got vaccinated by convenience, not by medical need so again why are there situations where we need to be vaccinated to say enter a pub? given the vaccine for us has no added value and we are putting nobody at risk as those who need the vaccine should already have it and they clearly have a very effective vaccine.
The Greeks probably have it right, making it law that those over 60 need to be vaccinatedā¦ i got vaccinated because im a selfish cunt like the rest of here, i wanted to go the pub and go to crete for a weekā¦ there is no need for a vaccine to be wasted on a cunt like meā¦ give it to person my age in Africa who needs it or give it to an old man thereā¦ it might save his lifeā¦
BUT - it was mandated that healthy people needed it to continue normal life , so you take it for that reason
thatās the problem lads

The vaccine has health benefits to over 60s or those with health issues
It has little health benefits to under 60s & those u60 with no health issues
I think anyone with an ounce of common sense can agree on that.
its shortsighted and disgusting
but look , thats the situation the government has created, all they need to do is make it law for over 60s and medically vulnerable to be vaccinated and when need get the boosters here for them and delivered prontoā¦
Fuck the rest of us, we clearly dont need this thing - why waste it on usā¦if this vaccine works, let it protect those who need it
that is it- nobody can argue with that

Living with Covid means exactly that, it should not involve wasting ā¬1 billion euro and incalculable carbon costs on impracticable ventilation systems.
Living with Covid = living with the common cold
Healthy people donāt do anything exceptional to avoid the common cold and in time thatās how humanity will cope with Covid too.
Covid parties would be more practical

Isnāt there something in some states in America whereby if you get work to do a state school or the like , if you tender at a certain price and the costs and timeline run over , you pay the difference even if that means another company coming in and completing task ā¦thought I heard an anecdote from Boston on that happening ā¦
We didnāt open things early in the summer because Michael Martin said that when he opened things, he wanted to be sure they would stay opened.

Vaccination Status of Deaths and Hospitalisations Report
Key Findings ā Hospitalisations:
ā¢ Three-quarters of adult inpatients aged under 50 are unvaccinated.
ā¢ More than a fifth (22%) of inpatients aged 50 and over are unvaccinated.
ā¢ Unvaccinated individuals aged 50 and over are 5 times as likely to be admitted to hospital as fully vaccinated individuals.
ā¢ For adults under 50, whilst the numbers admitted to hospital are lower, an unvaccinated individual is almost 18 times as likely to need hospitalisation.
Key Findings ā Death:
ā¢ Unvaccinated individuals aged 50 and over are almost four times as likely to die.
There are tables, which Iāll try to find, which at first sight at least, donāt tally with these findings.

Somebody smarter than me can try to explain what to me seems ananomaly at least
These are deaths for same period
And death rates per 100,000 (Rows correspond to Age cohort rows in table above)

Businesses have been told not to order stock for week before Christmas. A fire gap of 7-10 days to Christmas Eve.
